Believing Tops Seeing for Grier

IUHoosiers.com

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - It was about football faith, Jordan Grier says. He believed without seeing.

Tom Allen has that effect on people.

Indiana's hyper-energetic head coach has built a winning culture based on a Love-Each-Other approach that has generated national acclaim and 14 victories in the last two seasons.

That was among the draws for Grier, a 6-foot, 193-pound all-state defensive back. It was enough to get him to leave Georgia and Southeast Conference country, enough to spur Power 5 conference offers from Pitt, Kansas, and Kansas State, bringing with him a winning attitude that helped him lead Cedar Grove High School team to three state championships.
